Fish the Blue Ridge

Chase wild trout across North Carolina's legendary mountain tailwaters and native brook streams.

North Carolina is trout country

Fly fishing in North Carolina's High Country revolves around the cold, clear waters of the Blue Ridge Mountains, where float-worthy tailwaters and tumbling backcountry creeks hold three distinct species of trout. Our partner, The Speckled Trout Outfitters in Blowing Rock, puts you within easy reach of it all - drift-boat days on the legendary Watauga and South Holston Rivers for hard-fighting rainbows and trophy browns, plus walk-and-wade adventures on remote high-elevation streams where wild, native brook trout eagerly rise to a dry fly. With seasoned local guides, top-tier equipment, and flexible custom itineraries built around your group, a trip to this special slice of Appalachia rewards solo anglers, families, and corporate groups alike with world-class trout fishing and genuine mountain hospitality.
